Overview
UiPath® Data Fabric / Data Service usage is included in all Robot or Studio-enabled licenses, and includes the following two levels of service:
- Community—free of charge
- Enterprise—paid The amount of data storage available, the instances size requirements and the allowed number of Data Fabric / Data Service API calls vary depending on the type of license you acquire.
For more details about Automation Cloud licenses, refer to About licensing.
License details per level
Allowed Data Fabric / Data Service usage is expressed in Data Fabric / Data Service Units (DFU). Each DFU grants a certain amount of data storage, attachment storage, and a maximum number of API calls per day.
Community license
A Community license has a fixed Data Fabric / Data Service Unit assigned which can only be enabled for a single tenant.
The following table offers an overview of what is included in terms of data storage, attachment storage, and maximum API calls per day:
| Data storage | Attachment storage | Maximum API calls per day |
|---|---|---|
| 100 MB | 500 MB | 1,000 |
Enterprise (including Enterprise Trial)
Your Automation Cloud account is granted one Data Fabric / Data Service Unit for each of the following licenses:
- Action Center
- Attended
- Automation Developer
- Citizen Developer
- Cloud Basic User
- Process Mining Developer
- Test Robot
- Unattended Robot
The following table offers an overview of what is included in terms of data storage, attachment storage, and maximum API calls per day:
| Data storage | Attachment storage | Maximum API calls per day |
|---|---|---|
| 1 GB | 5 GB | 10,000 |
After you enable Data Fabric / Data Service, you can allocate up to the maximum amount of Data Fabric / Data Service available units. You can change the number of assigned units later on.
To learn how to edit the license allocation for Automation Cloud services, including Data Fabric / Data Service, refer to Allocating licenses to tenants.
Provisioning Data Fabric tenants
The license type for a Data Fabric / Data Service tenant is the license type of the account at the time of the tenant creation.
When upgrading a Community account to an Enterprise (or Enterprise Trial) account, your existing Data Fabric / Data Service tenant is restricted to the community storage and API call limits.
To leverage the storage and API calls available to your Enterprise (or Enterprise Trial) account, you need to create a new Data Fabric / Data Service tenant.
License workflow
This is how the license structure works:
- Your Automation Cloud account has different licensing quantity parameters for each service that can be attached to the platform.
- This means that, based on those quantity parameters, you can add one or multiple services to your Automation Cloud account.
- When enabling Data Fabric / Data Service for a tenant, you must assign one or more DFUs to it.
The details of the total and allocated Data Fabric / Data Service Units can always be reviewed. Depending on your role,
- Users can access Automation Cloud > Admin > Licenses;
- Organization administrators can access Automation Cloud > Admin > Licenses > Other services.
Refer to License usage for details.
The license is freed up if:
- the tenant is disabled;
- the tenant is deleted;
- Data Fabric / Data Service is removed from an existing tenant.
